I have taken a varchar of length 4000 and storing a string value at runtime. but it is doing an unusual behaviour. it stores 200 lenght of string and then discard the rest data ... :( how can i fix this?
I am writing an app in c#. I will be using the following code to get a number from the user. I had to make the variable a string to prevent any kind of conversion to be required.
string newID;
Console.WriteLine("Enter a new ID");
newID = Console.ReadLine();
Console.WriteLine("The new ID is {0}", newID);
Console.ReadLine();
The ID that this will be collecting will be stored in a SQL Server 2005 Express database. The field in the database is of the type int. Will there be a problem saving this number from the code above into the database? Will there be a problem b/c the datatypes don't match?

I am developing a smart device application using the .net compact framework 2.0. What is the best place to store the database Connection String in the smart device application.
I know that we can store the connection string in machine.config or web.config file if it isa web application. So is there something like that or what is the best place to store the connection string in the Smart Device Application.
Any help or suggestions regarding this would be greatly appreciated.
I am having a problem in a VB.NET application, i have a form that the user fills to store data in the database, the problem is that when i enter Arabic string, it gets stored in the database as question marks '??????' The database field type is nvarchar, anybody went across this problem?
I want to store the value of the Connection String in an Common table exisiting for the whole project and retrieve it for the whole package to Run. I want to know if there is a way of doing this.
I do not want to have a config file which is created trhough the package configuration.
In case of Parent package variable the Value of the variable needs to exist which again needs to execute the SQL Task which requires a connection string.
In case of Environment variabIe.I have very less knowledge about the environment variable . Even if we store it? how can we access it and change it in client place.
In case of SQL server . Can we store in an existing table. what is the configuration filter? what is the vlaue for it.
I do not want to execute any command line.............................

Hello there,I just want to ask if storing data in dbase is much better than storing it in the file system? Because for one, i am currenlty developing my thesis which uploads a blob.doc file to a web server (currently i'm using the localhost of ASP.NET) then retrieves it from the local hostAlso i want to know if im right at this, the localhost of ASP.NET is the same as the one of a natural web server on the net? Because i'm just thinking of uploading and downloading the files from a web server. Although our thesis defense didn't require us to really upload it on the net, we were advised to use a localhost on our PC's. I'll be just using my local server Is it ok to just use a web server for storing files than a database?
Link ( GroupID int , MemberID int ) Member ( MemberID int , MemberName varchar(50), GroupID varchar(255) )
The Link table contains the records showing which Member is in which Group. One particular Member can be in multiple Groups and also a particular Group may have multiple Members.
The Member table contains the Member's ID, Member's Name, and a Group ID field (that will contains comma-separated Groups ID, showing in which Groups the particular Member is in).
We have the Link table ready, and the Member table' with first two fields is also ready. What we have to do now is to fill the GroupID field of the Member table, from the Link Table.
For instance,
Read all the GroupID field from the Link table against a MemberID, make a comma-separated string of the GroupID, then update the GroupID field of the corresponding Member in the Member table.
Please help me with a sql query or procedures that will do this job. I am using SQL SERVER 2000.
Not sure this is the right forum as I'm not sure quite what the problem is, but I have a feeeling it's the stored procedure that I'm using to replace the SQL string I used previously.I have a search form used to find records in a (SQL Server 2005) db. The form has a number of textboxes and corresponding checkboxes. The user types in a value they want to search for (e.g. search for a surname) and then selects the corresponding checkbox to indicate this. Or they can search for both surname and firstname by typing in the values in the correct textboxes and selecting the checkboxes corressponding to surname and firstname.The code to make this work looks like this:---------------------------------------- Dim conn As SqlConnection Dim comm As SqlCommand Dim param As SqlParameter Dim param2 As SqlParameter Dim param3 As SqlParameter Dim param4 As SqlParameter Dim objDataset As DataSet Dim objAdapter As SqlDataAdapter conn=NewSqlConnection("blah, blah") comm = New SqlCommand 'set properties of comm so it uses conn & recognises which stored proc to execute comm.Connection = conn comm.CommandText = "SPSearchTest3" comm.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure 'create input parameter, set it's type and value param = comm.CreateParameter param.ParameterName = "@empid" param.Direction = ParameterDirection.Input param.Value = txtPatID.Text param2 = comm.CreateParameter param2.ParameterName = "@LastName" param2.Direction = ParameterDirection.Input param2.Value = txtSurname.Text comm.Parameters.Add(param) comm.Parameters.Add(param2) conn.Open() objAdapter = New SqlDataAdapter(comm) objDataset = New DataSet objAdapter.Fill(objDataset) dgrdRegistration.DataSource = objDataset dgrdRegistration.DataBind() conn.Close()------------------------------------While the stored procedure is this:------------------------------ @EmpID int, @LastName nvarchar(20) ASSELECT EmployeeID, LastName, Firstname, BirthDate, Address, title, addressFROM employeesWHERE (DataLength(@EmpID) = 0 OR EmployeeID = @EmpID)AND (DataLength(@LastName) = 0 OR LastName = @LastName)------------------------------This will work if I search using EmployeeID and Surname or only by EmployeeID, but I don't get any results if I search only for Surname, even though I know the record(s) exits in the db and I've spelled it correctly. Can someone point out where I'm going wrong?(Incidentally if I have a procedure with has only one parameter 'surname' or 'employeeID', it works fine!)Thanks very much and sorry about the long-winded post.
HiI have a problem trying to compare a string value in a WHERE statement. Below is the sql statement. ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.StoredProcedure1(@oby char,@Area char,@Startrow INT,@Maxrow INT, @Minp INT,@Maxp INT,@Bed INT )
ASSELECT * FROM ( SELECT row_number() OVER (ORDER BY @oby DESC) AS rownum,Ref,Price,Area,Town,BedFROM [Houses] WHERE ([Price] >= @Minp) AND ([Price] <= @Maxp) AND ([Bed] >= @Bed) AND ([Area] = @Area)) AS AWHERE A.rownum BETWEEN (@Startrow) AND (@Startrow + @Maxrow) The problem is the Area variable if i enter it manually it works if i try and pass the variable in it doesn't work. If i change ([Area] = @Area) to ([Area] = 'The First Area') it is fine. The only problem i see is that the @Area has spaces, but i even tried passing 'The First Area' with the quotes and it still didnt work.Please help, its got to be something simple.Thanks In Advance

Hello, I'm trying to pass a simple string value to a stored procedure and just can't seem to make it work. I'm baffled since I know how to pass an integer to a stored procedure. In the example below, I don't get any compile errors or page load errors but my repeater doesn't populate (even though I know for certain the word "hello" is actually in the BlogTxt field in the db. If I change the stored procedure to say...WHERE BlogTxt LIKE '%hello%'then the results do indeed show up in the repeater.I ultimately would like to pass text from a textbox control or maybe even a querystring to the stored procedure. Then I'll move on to passing multiple "keywords" to it. :)My relevant code is below.

I have a stored procedure called from ASP code, and when it is executed, the stored procedure takes in a date as an attribute.
But since the stored procedure call is really just a string in the code, it is taking in the value as a string. So in my stored procedure, I want to convert a string value to a date value.
Hi,I would like to check if a string value exist in a string in sqlserver stored procedure, e.g.set @testString = 'this is my test document.'if (@testString contains 'test')begin.....endHow do I do this in sql server stored procedure?Thanks,June...
Development - Visual Studio 2005 Database - MS SQL 2005
I have written a stored procedure that has a output parameter whose type is NVARCHAR(MAX). Then I use C# to wrap this stored procedure in OLEDB way. That means the OleDbType for that parameter is VarWChar.
This works fine if the string size is less than 4000. If more than 4000, the remaining part will be chopped off. The situation gets worst if I replace VarWChar with LongVarWChar. There is no error nor warning at compiling time. But there is an exception at run time.
So... Does anyone here can help me out? Thanks in advance.
I have a multivalued parameters populated from a dataset with country codes: US,CA,HK etc... I tried to pass the parameter to the stored procedured but that did not work. I did some research and found out that I won't be able to do that.
Writing Queries that Map to Multivalued Report Parameters
You can define a multivalued parameter for any report parameter that you create. However, if you want to pass multiple parameter values back to a query, the following requirements must be satisfied: The data source must be SQL Server, Oracle, or Analysis Services. The data source cannot be a stored procedure. Reporting Services does not support passing a multivalued parameter array to a stored procedure. The query must use an IN statement to specify the parameter. If I am not able to pass the parameter that way, what is the best way to accomplish my goal? Thanks, Elie
In my .NET app I have a search user control. The search control allows the user to pick a series of different data elements in order to further refine your display results. Typically I store the values select in a VarChar(5000) field in the DB. One of the items I recently incorporated into the search tool is a userID (GUID) of the person handling the customer. When I go to pass the selected value to the stored proc
objUpdCommand.Parameters.Add("@criteria", SqlDbType.VarChar).Value = strCriteria; I get: Failed to convert parameter value from a String to a Guid. Ugh! It's a string, dummy!!! I have even tried: objUpdCommand.Parameters.Add("@criteria", SqlDbType.VarChar).Value = new Guid(strCriteria).ToString(); and
objUpdCommand.Parameters.Add("@criteria", SqlDbType.VarChar).Value = new Guid(strCriteria).ToString("B"); but to no avail. How can I pass this to the stored proc without regard for it being a GUID in my app?
